Thanks for your work on this - and to all who have contributed in a positive way. No more slagging off/negative comments please. Lets get this bass home.

More cables delivered to me - more excellent service

I went too see Doug with Keith (or was it Kenny?) LeBlanc at the Bass Centre for a gig. A bit of a name dropper and heavy on the pedals but a great bassist. p.s. I remember the drummer looked a little frail with little or no hair and a basebal cap - cancer/chemotherapy/recreational chemistry? Excellent drummer though.

[quote name='FazerBass' post='191835' date='May 4 2008, 07:51 PM']Hi guys, I want to get my Warwick Protube serviced as I want it in tip top shape for when I start to gig and perhaps tour with my band. A major complaint I have with this amp is that the tube channel EQ switches are so delicate and I need them either replaced or have a new push pull system incorperated into the head for added durability as all but one have snapped off and now the tube channel keeps flickering on and off. Any Ideas where to get it serviced? How much do they charge to have the whole thing looked at? Im based in Brighton Thanks[/quote] Just be very careful not to part with your money before you have the goods - some people have been seriously ripped off like this.

I get so many tones out of it and with my Gk head, i can set the eq to give it a bit more of an edge. Im not sure i NEED another bass but il still get another one when i have the money [/quote] I think I played a Lakland JO4 at the SE BassBash. Very very good. In fact I'll stick my neck out and say that IMHO Lakland make the most versatile 'off the shelf' basses that money can buy.

Cheers keith[/quote] Is a 'couple' bigger than a Nebuchadnezzar - if so, I'm very interested. Please post pictures of accomodation/patio area you can offer so I can tell if I can fall flat on my face without injury.

You might want to play around with ISD pro first before choosing a speaker - it will make quite a difference. [url="http://www.linearteam.dk/default.aspx?pageid=winisdpro"]http://www.linearteam.dk/default.aspx?pageid=winisdpro[/url]

I really love my Lakland 5 string - so fantastic at everything, but I'd grab the Stingray 4 - it just feels/sounds so right. It's my sound.

I had to learn to shoot with my weak hand as good as I can with my strong hand. It was ok with the fine motor skills, but with the gross motor skills it was really hard work - especially in a really stress filled situation. I suppose the same applies to bass.

Hi Alex After Merton has blown it to bits, can I try the shrapnel? I had to leave the SE Bass Bash before I had chance to abuse it. I've just bought a BFM Omni15 Tallboy from David Perry and am interested to do an A/B. After I'm done I can deliver it to the next abuser within spitting distance of me........ I can spit 10 miles or so from M.25 Junction 11. (Mug of tea on delivery please) Cheers

Found the adventure, found the cheap wine, found the peacefull life, but still looking for a drummer that doesn't speed up. (ha ha) Thanks for the welcome keith[/quote] Ummmmmmmmm wine My Brother-in-Law has a place very near Puy-de-Dôme that I like chilling out at. Near to you?
